Art Hounds: Week of May 21
Each week Minnesota Public Radio News asks three people from the Minnesota arts scene to be "Art Hounds." Their job is to step outside their own work and hunt down something exciting that's going on in local arts.
Find out how you can become an Art Hound.
This week:

She is looking forward to taking in the Norval Morisseau Late Paintings exhibit at Bockley Gallery. Morisseau is considered one of the grandfathers of Native American contemporary art.
